Mythology

The constellation is to reflect the honorary wreath of Krotos. As the son of Pan and Eupheme he grew up full of zest for life and later became the inventor of archery and a great artist. The honorary wreath was a gift from the muses, who constantly admired him. After his death, Krotos was sent to the sky as Sagittarius, and his wreath in the form of Corona Australis lingers at his side.
